Niece's Graduation trip in pictures

                                      


 

 












 

 
 
 
This was a really fun trip...but also tiring!  And sometimes feeling my age.  I don't recommend anyone over 35 going to a high school graduation!  Some highlights:

  • Buying my nephew a bubble machine
  • Fishing and getting caught by the lake cops 
  • Buying a new suit that fits me well
  • Spending time with each of my brothers and sister's in law doing summer activities
  • Being scratched by Tyler and Tammy's stupid pitbull :/
  • Alex catching a cold and feeling terrible
  • Visiting Kevin and Cheryl after they had COVID (Once they were clear)
  • Seeing my Grandma Vita

Christmas moments

 Christmas tree at Alex's.
 I buy the don't step in the unicorn poop game for Sarah's kids.
 These cute kids were even cuter this year.

 Brooke in the choir...nice to see her singing.
 Saskatoo fashion. Sad I didn't buy it.
Cirque the Xmas version with my nieces.
Baking with my sisters-in-law
 Wyatt growing up.
 What are these bear statues in Saskatoon?? Ahaha, I loved them.
We went trampolining with the whole family.  Alex hurt his back a bit.
Kristine came home as a surprise for Xmas. So happy.
Trying out my new photo toy.

 Vita and K.
 Me and my dad. Not sure why he's trying to out-hat-game me.
My cute and funny sis-in-law, Tori.  I think we both had been drinking on Xmas.
Back in time for Danny's 30th.

This year's Christmas was about family. We hung out so much together, and it was full of great moments.  I hope every year could be as good as this year at Christmas.

Trip through the Mountains 2018

This is probably my favourite vacation I took last year, only being beaten by our Denmark trip the year previous around this time.



While in Edmonton, we stopped by West Edmonton Mall for a total of 15 minutes, and decided we could find the same things in Toronto.  I forced Alex to come with me into an antique store, which I found MEGA FUN.  So many cool things, but all of them breakable.  We also visited Andrea and Francis, two very good friends of mine, and I didn't take a group photo of everyone. :(  But we had a great time before going off to the mountains! :)





Probably my favourite photo as we drove into the mountains


I loved this photo, even though something odd happened when I took it...it was a mountain I fell in love with 




We discovered goats right by Miette Hot Springs 
We hiked to the water sources of the Hot Springs, smelled terrible, looked beautiful.

Took some really great mountain photos



Stayed in a very cute bed and breakfast that served the best banana bread, fresh every day!

 
Stood on top of a mountain in near Jasper


Found a new favourite waterfall, Tangle Falls


Spent a rainy day in Banff....the place I hate most on earth.  (Complete tourist trap...)

Pretended to meditate to pretend I enjoyed hanging out in Banff...

But we did go for a short hike, and had some fun doing it.


Once in Calgary, we stayed across from 'The United Brotherhood  of Carpenters and Joiners of America.' (Also, on way to Lake Louise, learned how fast people drive on the highway.  It's fast!)

Visited with my Aunt Jodi and Uncle Jake and family


 Went to Lake Louise, and captured 'the photo' we went on this trip for! 


Had a $100 lunch on the patio of the hotel (Which I didn't pay for, ha!)


Drove home so I could get a kiss from my momma
And then got upgraded to first class on our flight back...say what??? Wow!

Overall, there were so many memories and moments, it's hard to count them all.  It was definitely a road trip to remember!
